Even the best pitchers must evolve to stay ahead of the game
Jeff Blair
Big names like Spencer Strider and others are running out new pitches, as are relative unknowns like … like Mr. No-Hitter Ronel Blanco. It's important for all pitchers to evolve with each passing season.
With Ohtani's name at stake, MLB has a ready scapegoat
